“And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19 ESV)
“Therefore I tell you, do not be anxious about your life, what you will eat or what you will drink, nor about your body, what you will put on. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothing?” (Matthew 6:25 ESV)
Have you ever passed on something thinking there was something better? I have. And I usually find that something better and usually cheaper. But there is no replacement or anything better than God. God is the best. No second best for me where God is concerned. God loves and cares for us. No ifs, ands or buts. That’s just the way it is.
God knows us inside out, and He knows what we need before we do. And He has everything planned out for us. God had a plan before we were even thought of by our parents. People will throw you for a loop, but God won’t.
My mom threw me for a loop one day. We were on our way home from a shopping trip when she suddenly sprung it on me with instructions not to tell my brothers. She divorced my dad when my older brothers were just toddlers. After she died, I asked my aunt, and she confirmed it. But they did remarry a year or so later. My question to her was this. “Why did you go back to him?” Her reply, “If I hadn’t, I wouldn’t have you and Chuck.” Good response. I shut up.
But God had a plan for them to be together and brought them back together. We never found divorce papers, but we did find 2 marriage certificates. So the next time things go wonkie for you, just thank God for His plan to fix it.
Have a fantastic day, everyone.
